@TimStone clean CR or any riders?

Tim Stone

GodEmperorDune

(would not be surprised if the CR also included something making it illegal to register as a democrat or somesuch)

Tim Stone

They had to have Dem support to get it in before the Friday deadline so it seems clean

Okaaaaaay then

GodEmperorDune

that is the weirdest shit

Tim Stone

I mean I'm glad he didn't like hack up a body but the "whole other field" was not wrong

Not worse per se but definitely weirder

GodEmperorDune

yeah

is that even sexual harassment or is it something else?

user15026

@GodEmperorDune I guess that depends on how he intended to make the child?

user15026

11:42 PM

I dunno

user15026

its weird

GodEmperorDune

@Ash yeah, i'm not sure if its a euphemism for "have sex and keep it"

so weird

so objectifying too

user15026

user15026

11:44 PM

how

user15026

sigh

user15026

The worst part is that it is pretty clear that one side of this whole thing is not facing any consequences

GodEmperorDune

i guess he wants to double down on the "good ole boy" vote

user15026

I suppose so

GodEmperorDune

@Ash mr "pregnancy pls" was republican

Unionhawk

11:45 PM

How is Roy Moore a real person

Are we sure he's not like

Tim Stone

@GodEmperorDune I don't even think this was the first time this was mentioned (not like, in an inb4 kind of way, but like he was reported to have said it previously)

Unionhawk

Genetically engineered from Andrew Brietbart, Roger Ailes, and a Confederate general? Or something? To create the ultimate... Whatever he is?

user15026

I am glad this guy is getting consequences for his actions

GodEmperorDune

@Unionhawk throw some ggers in the mix there too

@Ash he molested soooooo many girls though. its infuriating that he got away with it for so long

user15026

11:48 PM

Now if the political world could take things as seriously

user15026

@GodEmperorDune oh, it is hella infuriating that it took this damn long

user15026

but I am glad someone finally listened

GodEmperorDune

yeah

user15026

like it won't make their pain stop (I wish it did, I wish I could take that away) but it is something, finally

Roy Moore: Still racist

GodEmperorDune

11:49 PM

@TimStone gaaaaaah

Tim Stone

Ah yeah, probably the same event

GodEmperorDune

i guess i had a racism overflow error there

Yuuki

GodEmperorDune

@TimStone i would not be surprised if he did it again

Tim Stone

But somehow it wasn't immediately disqualifying then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

GodEmperorDune

11:50 PM

it's not the kind of thing that "slips out"

@TimStone hell it probably won him the primary

oh lol, apparently mr surrogacy was one of the people calling for mueller to resign

user15026

Man, one thing this whole news cycle lately is doing is completely exhausting my vocabulary of swear words

GodEmperorDune

@Ash yeah

user15026

Like saying holy fuck now is kinda meaningless

Tim Stone

Holy smokes. Judge Pressler is a major player in Southern Baptist Convention politics. https://texasmonitor.org/paul-pressler-lawsuit-alleges-decades-long-molestation/

user15026

Like....I can't even summon up surprise anymore

GodEmperorDune

holy fuuuuuuuuuuuck

user15026

I am starting to think to be in power in certain areas (because lets be honest this just isn't the states its everywhere) you have to be a monster

user15026

and now we are just finding out what some of us already knew - there are monsters everywhere

user15026

11:59 PM

and nowhere is safe

Tim Stone

House Ethics Committee picked up Farenthold/Franks investigations (unanimously), somehow clears Nunes of allegations he made unauthorized disclosures of classified info

user15026

(sorry, I am so defeatist over all of this and I apologize)

GodEmperorDune

@Ash there are theories that the halls of power have a mutually assured destruction kinda thing where everyone knows everyone else's skeletons

and to get in, you need a certain amount of skeletons
